Distant - Shoreline, Smile and Burn

I’m freezing but it’s summertime

My body fell asleep in a blaze

Every step you’re taking towards me

Is another dream I fake

I can find my own little comfort in this mess

But I can’t scrub the bloodstains off my dirty hands

Yeah, and it’s always been a bit at a time

I got my tongue tied up

And my eyes still shut

So you better gather in the waiting line

I can only hear you scream

If you’re standing right in front of me

Calm but stable

Unlike a nutshell on the sea

I can find my own little comfort in this mess

But I can’t scrub the bloodstains off my dirty hands

Yeah, and it’s always been a bit at a time

I got my tongue tied up

And my eys still shut

So you better gather in th waiting line

It’s never been so easy to sleep at night

Every new day’s a brick on the borderline

I try to scratch off the map the few that are left

This time, we will look after ourselves

And it’s always been a bit at a time

I got my tongue tied up

And my eyes still shut

So you better gather in the waiting line
